Free/Cheap Parking in Brisbane City?

I’ve recently moved to Brisbane (this city is amazing!!!) and have found an apartment to rent in the middle of the city (near Cathedral Square). I’ll be charged $10 per day to park my car in the building and I was hoping to find somewhere to park on the street or in another building either for free or cheaper than that. I’ll drive to work so I really only need a place to park it at night. Any tips or hidden parking nooks? It would be really appreciated. 🙂 submitted by /u/akasakasan [link] [comments]

Back in those days though (late 1990’s), working in IT was still worth something, and there were still good jobs to be had, and no global labour market to compete against. The times are changing with the new global labour market. New IT graduates today will look at people like me with scorn and disgust at my “lucky break” as they drive around in their Uber cars between lawnmowing jobs in the new service economy, or perhaps before moving overseas to where the real jobs actually are. But apparently we have to find high paying jobs. What are these highly paid jobs of which they speaks ? ……….I know ! ……I’ll bet they is referring to management jobs in the NSW government that fires
